Deck Description

Tournament Quality rage extractor deck. There are many different ways to make this type of deck to work, but this is the method i chose. Timely reinforcements helps keep your life up and on your toes against a faster deck. Grand architect is intended to help boost the speed at which new phyrexian spells are cast, since all spells with the hybrid mana are artifacts. Turn aside is a nice little cheapy counter spell that often catches an opponent off guard. "Oh, you want to destroy my rage extractor? i will turn aside with the one island i left up." :)

sideboarded mental misstep against those pesky delvers. :(


************NOTE****************
Temporal Mastery is just a fun element i added on the side. Not entirely necessary and therefore brings the deck total to 62. I do play with temporal mastery in there, but it does perform better without it. it just isnt nearly as fun as it is with them in there. :)

Deck discussion for Rage Extraction

Looks like a fun deck to play. I really like the Grand Architect tech. How has it been doing in matchups?

I would definitely lose the Temporal Mastery. I don't think this deck really wants it, especially if it puts you over 60 cards.

Also, why no gut shot? Rage extractor turns it into Forked Bolt, which is awesome considering all the X/1's in standard.

Also, Why are you using Divination instead of Tezzeret's Gambit? They can be cast for the same cost, and with a Rage extractor in play, Gambit is way better.

The life cost starts to become a problem with gambit. I ran it and found I preferred divination.

As I said in the note, temporal mastery is a fun element I have added. The deck is better without it, but it is not necessary at all. Take it out and there is that 60 card deck everyone raves about. I look for extra little fun elements in the game and that is one of them.

I also sacrificed gut shot for turn aside. Had problems keeping my rage extractors and grand architects alive. People kept trying to kill them... So sad. :(

This deck has been doing very well considering its age. Has gone approx 60 - 65% win rate...

Cool, nice to see you thought everything out. It always refreshing to see original decks doing well.

Also (in a very much not original way), I think I'm going to build a similar deck to this, but I like the idea of using Black more than White. I figure I can recoup the life loss with Vault Skirge and Pristine Talisman. Plus Dismember becomes ridiculous with an Extractor in play.

Please do copy! =D

This deck isn't entirely original. It made rounds back in the early new phyrexian days. I pulled it out again and gave it a little dusting for FNM. sadly, nearly everyone at the place I play went artifact hate for seemingly no reason that week. =$

Also, I had pristine talisman in here originally, but I found that I was throwing it with Merfolk looter way more than I was actually playing it.... So I trashed it.

All red is new phyrexian hybrid. Can be paid in life rather than mana.
